Very often, computer users try to look for solutions to commonly occurring problems only when they are faced with a crisis rather than being prepared before hand for dealing with such situations.
Dealing with deleted data is one such situation that we often come across.
We have all been in this situation more than once.
You are working on an important document and you either fail to save it or end up deleting it by mistake and it seems to disappear from your hard disk entirely, even skipping the Recycle Bin.
Of course, you are all ready to hit the panic button but just then you come across our write-up which tells you that your file has not disappeared; in fact, the contents of your file are still very much present on your hard disk though you are not able to view or work with the file.
So now, what steps do you take to be able to unerase this file so that you could continue working with it? When you first realize that you have lost an important file or lost valuable information, it is but natural for you to panic and not know where to turn to.
So the first step you need to take is to calm down.
Now, go back to the Recycle Bin and check if the file you had accidentally deleted is there by any chance.
If not, do not worry; let us just move on to the next step.
Before you do so, you need to understand that when you delete a file, your operating system is merely indicating that the space the file occupied is free and can be used for new data.
The file and its contents still exist on the NTFS hard drive but your computer will start writing new data on it at some point in time.
If you would like to successfully unerase your file, you need to immediately stop working on your computer or only do what is minimally necessary.
Every time, you work on something, your computer writes down data on your hard drive, reducing your chances of successfully restoring your file.
All right, so now that you have ceased all other activities on your computer, you need to look for a powerful but reliable recovery tool that will help you locate your file amongst the hundreds, perhaps thousands of files that you have deleted and then restore it fully.
